Sinergy Synopsis
When a teenage girl moves from what's familiar to what's unfamiliar, things can get tough. This is what Mindy encounters when her mother, Daisey, moves her from an Illinois suburb to urban Las Vegas. They move in with Daisey's new lover Naomi much to the chagrin of Mindy. Mindy's frustrations are further aggravated when Daisey holds a secret from her, the identity of her long lost father whom she has never known. To escape her present circumstances she talks to her father through means of an audio diary and pursues her passion to become a renowned hip-hop dancer.
Mindy builds a relationship with a classmate, Kat, who has dreams of becoming a lawyer and therefore making her mother proud. When Mindy realizes that Kat has a talent and love for painting she encourages her to follow her dream to be an artist. This is difficult for Kat who doesn't want to disappoint her overbearing mother and has emotional wounds from a past abusive relationship with Oakie, who is also a striving hip-hop dancer and a foe of Mindy.
Sinergy is an urban teen drama that takes you on a journey where all these stories collide. It's where characters clash, and dreams are pursued. It's where a teenage girl seeks to discover a missing part of her identity...her father.

INT. MINDY'S ROOM - LATER
Mindy in front of the mirror. She poplocks slowly, doing the same move repeatedly, trying to find her rhythm.
MINDY ON BED
She holds an object in hand.
Revealed we see the bronze emblem with the ballet dancer engraved on it.
She goes to her closet. From it she takes a small cardboard box. She opens it.
We see numerous mini-audio tapes in meticulous order.
She pulls a tape from the box.
She takes a mini-audio recorder from her backpack.
She labels her tape with a marker.
She pushes the record button then moves in closer to speak.
MINDY
This is volume three, tape five. Today was
my first day of school in sin city. Wasn't
too bad. I missed my bus. I was kinda
happy though because the buses out here
smell like piss, even more than back home.
(beat)
Mom is still the same. Still bitter. Maybe
I should feel the same, but I don't. I still
don't know what happened between you
two. She never talks about it... I'll get a
job, save up some money, keep dancing,
escape like you did. I Can't stay here.
(beat)
You knew I'd be a dancer. That's why
you left this...
She looks down at the bronze emblem.
MINDY (CONT'D)
The only thing of yours she ever gave me.
When I finally make it you'll see me, try
to find me.
(beat)
I have one more thing I want to say.
Wounds heal over time. I have no
hard feelings for you.
She stops the tape.
Turns off the lights.
